ASM Recognizes Members for Contributions to Materials Science

To recognize members for their distinguished contributions to the field of materials science and engineering, the 2009 Class of Fellows has been announced by ASM International, the U.S.-based materials information society.

The Fellows are a unique group, not only for their outstanding achievements, but also for their ongoing contributions to the society. The Board of Trustees solicits their advice to help guide the society, and to suggest new technical directions. This guidance enhances the capability of ASM as a technical and professional society to serve the technical community of materials science and engineering. us

The Fellows of ASM will be honored during the Annual Awards Banquet of ASM International, to be held during the MS&T 2009 event in Pittsburgh on Tuesday, October 27. The 2009 Class of ASM Fellows is comprised of:
